Pat and Holly - Thank you both so much for your info. Now I know better who the successful MZ is. WOW ! Now I have some opportunities I would not even have known to examine....something less invasive with a shorter surgery time always sounds better to me so I will keep those ideas in mind, although the idea of having to travel doesn't thrill me, moreso as I am not sure who I could find to go with me. But I am a person of faith and if that is what God has in store for me, then I'm sure I will find a way.
More and more, the Indiana pouch seems less threathening to me and so I appreciate hearing the success stories. Thank you Pat for all the details. I plan to make a phonecall later today and talk with someone else about their experiences.
